The Dunedin City Council has decided to spend$50,000 on a it's "sustainability" project. I predict that there will be much more money to follow. Michael Guest was the only councillor to disaprove. He said parts of a report on sustainability were "from the loony left", and urged the council not to treat the idea as a religion. The ODT report is here.
That being said, much of sustainability is just a return to old-fashioned values of "waste not, want not" and frugal living. I will treat any proposals from the Sustainability Working Party on their merits, but I feel there will be hare-brained schemes to analyze.
The full Council report can be downloaded from here(pdf).
